About Alberto
Alberto Chang is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with ten years of experience. He is licensed in Massachusetts and practices with clients in New Hampshire. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, career problems, trauma, grief and depression, among other concerns.
Alberto keeps sessions straightforward and focused on practical next steps. He listens to what is most urgent and helps people name patterns that get in the way. Conversations often include looking at thoughts and behaviors, and testing out small changes between meetings.
He uses a mix of approaches depending on the situation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behavior. Narrative Therapy helps people rewrite the stories they tell about themselves. Motivational Interviewing can be part of work on change and commitment.
People contact him for many relationship and life-transition issues. That includes intimacy concerns, parenting stress, blended family issues, communication problems, divorce and separation, and fatherhood questions. He also offers support for addiction, bipolar symptoms, and coping with major life changes.
Initial sessions focus on clear goals and a practical plan. Sessions are collaborative and grounded in what the person wants to accomplish. The clinician asks about current routines and suggests small experiments to test different ways of coping.
He works in English. Prospective clients are asked to use the site’s matching process to choose an initial appointment and provide basic intake information before the first session.
How his approaches work with online sessions
Alberto uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is practical and often includes homework like tracking thoughts or trying a small change between meetings. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change and can help when motivation feels mixed or uncertain. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and identifies alternate ways to describe experience that reduce shame or avoidance.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alberto will talk with each person about their goals, past experiences, and preferences, and then suggest which methods to start with. That plan can be adjusted as work progresses so the approach stays aligned with the person’s needs.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the profile. Ask about available session types when you use the matching tools. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time so people can focus on practical change rather than scheduling barriers.
